About

Jonathan Ring

My name is Jonathan Ring, I grew up in Southsea, Portsmouth surrounded by a creative family. My Grandad had photography as a hobby and this has passed down through my parents to me.

I enjoy being creative and capturing the world. I found my taste for design when I went to college and studied Graphic Design, leading me to apply to University and finishing with a First Class Honours in Graphic Communication.

About

Careers

When finishing University I was able to work as a freelancer with Yes Creative in Southsea. Working with companies like Echo Falls, Rowans Hospice and other various projects.

I had a successful interview for a Graphic Designer role with The Directory Group in Petersfield. Working on their directories which are put out each month advertising great local companies along with interesting articles as well as their magazine Beautiful South.

I gained a lot of experience and knowledge while with The Directory Group, but I felt my best option would to move to freelancing. Allowing my creative ideas to run freely.
